Yep. But players also know that waiting pays. And my guess is that guys like Porter and Watt who have close family members who were very good...
I think Revis was like this too. Surf the cap appreciation on one year deals until you think you aren't going to be elite anymore. Then sign a...
My understanding is that JPJ's deal probably won't increase his 1st year cap hit by all that much...maybe a couple million. But there are other...
UFA means it's a market. You can say that your brick and mortar book store isn't Amazon, so you'll price things however you want. Amazon sets...
I will try, but it will probably fall on deaf ears because people (reasonably) just don't like the obscene amounts of money that come from...
He'll likely get a higher AAV (probably wants a touch more than witherspoon) and 2 years guaranteed (which we gave DK even though he never had an...
I'm surprised that they waited this long on this one. Seemed clear that this was going to happen for a long time. Kind of like how we're almost...
How contracts work in the NFL is complex. And pretending that either of us knows more than Omar in that area is pretty silly IMO. I haven't been...
He's comparable to Witherspoon. So his market value is somewhere close to that $33mm/year in today's market. It would be awesome if he signed for...
How many picks did Sauce Gardner have in his first 3 seasons? How does it compare to Porter? I'd suggest looking at all of their metrics. They...
I'd imagine that he isn't the only DB to commit penalties to avoid TDs...which is a good thing BTW. I think if you look at his penalties vs....
He's given up 1 TD in 3 years (and 0 TDs in the last 2 years) while often facing the best WRs on the other team. He's a very good CB. Compare...
Hines was worse than both Watt and JPJ. In part because the CBA allowed him to hold out. But everyone loves Hines. This is just how it works....
You don't think that underestimating the value of the current CB market might have also led you to underestimate the value of a contract for...
$25MM would have been low even before the significant increase in CB contracts this offseason. The team can't just make up numbers they'd like...
I'd like to see more Wetjen too. Re: Roman, I think it depends on whether they've given up on him or not. Or maybe if they're trying to showcase...
I guess the question I was asking is where does your number come from? Aside from being in the range you provided? Currently, the top 5 CB...
I agree that there should be lines. I posted how I would come to a number (above) and also in the first post that was about this early in the...
It's not the Browns (although the Watson contract is the worst contract for a team ever in the NFL). It's the league. This is just how contracts work.
This is basically you saying that you don't want to keep Porter. There's a 0% chance he takes the numbers you're suggesting on a long term...
